This knocks off a good portion of what I wanted to cover last time, but there are a few things on the list remaining.

We still need to give feminism a good working over, but Jessica is pretty busy right now so I don’t know when we’ll be writing our two-part article on that. In the meantime, stay tuned for a few of these entries,

1) Everything is Relative, Even This Statement
Problems with the laissez fair attitude of cultural relativism.
2) Math and the Meaning of Life
Ideas about the actual nature of the universe.
3) The Problem of Pain
An attempt to diffuse the “How-can-God-be-omnibenevolent-if-people-suffer?” argument.
4) The Bus to Heaven and HellClarifying a much confused issue about what it means to “go to hell” (and who goes, and why).
5) Democratic Lies: All Men Are Not Created EqualDebunking the basic lie behind the American Dream, and the harm this mentality has done so far.
6) In the Footsteps of EmersonMy follow-up to Nature, Self-Reliance, and The Transcendentalist.

And of course the fancy two-parter on Feminism.

Feel free to post suggestions for articles, such as theological or philosophical questions (perhaps I can sum up Sartre or Kant for those tackling him for the first time?) or any sort of societal issues or concerns (which haven’t really been dealt with yet).

Thanks for reading!

I’m looking forward to your American Dream writings, as I may actually have something to contribute to that. I read a lot of articles of the American mythos, and it’s something that interests me greatly (in the vein of the Great Gatsby and even Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas or On the Road).
